E. Chadwick, after an illness of three months with influenza and heart trouble. During most of her illness she was tenderly cared for in the home of her daughter, in Sumner. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at the Methodist church in Frederika, Rev. F. W. Gable officiating, and burial was in the Frederika cemetery. Rosa Brown, daughter of Wm. R. and Sarah Brown was born in Fayette county on June 24, 1856. While still a child she moved with her parents to Fredericksburg and there she grew to womanhood. She was married to Joseph E. McGee, also of Fredericksburg. They made their home on a farm near that place for some time and later moved to Frederika where she has lived many years. Her husband died on September 3, 1926. The union was blessed with two children, Mrs. Genevieve Chadwick, of Sumner, and Seth McGee, of Frederika. The death of Mrs. McGee removes, a woman of singular goodness whose strong and beautiful character has left an indelible stamp on the lives of many friends not only here but wherever she was known and many will sigh for the touch of the vanished hand; for the sound of a voice that is still." She was converted in childhood and united with the Methodist Episcopal church and while her health and strength permitted she was a regular attendant at the services. She was also a member of the Ladies Aid Society for many years. She served her maker cheerfully and faithfully and death found her ready and waiting for the reward. Besides her sorrowing daughter and son she is mourned by three grandchildren and one brother, Seth Brown of Geary, Oklahoma. Information supplied by Linda Hagedorn Finley
